Der BMW Z3 – Ein Bajuware aus Amerika Der BMW Z3 ist Bayerns Beitrag zum neuen Roadsterfieber der 90er Jahre. Ausgelöst durch den Erfolg des MX-5 von Mazda steuern alle namhaften Hersteller einen Roadster zum neuerwachten Markt der offenen Sport-Flitzer bei: Mercedes den SLK, Porsche den Boxster, Fiat die Barchetta, MG den MGF und BMW eben den Z3. Ab 1995 auf dem Markt ,gab es ihn zunächst nur als Vierzylinder mit 115 PS oder 140 PS. Bemängelt wurde oft, dass es sich beim Z3 um alten Wein in neuen Schläuchen handelte. Nicht umsonst war der Werkscode E36/7, denn der Z3 wurde auf der Plattform des E36 Compact aufgebaut. Auch andere Teile aus dem BMW Serien-Regal finden sich im Z3 wieder. Gänzlich ist die Fertigungsstätte. Der Z3 war der erste BMW, der in den USA gebaut wurde. 60% der Teile kamen aus Nordamerika. Die Fertigung in den South Carolina war ein Coup, denn dadurch konnte der Z3 auf dem wichtigen nordamerikanischen Markt günstiger angeboten werden als die Konkurrenz. Auch deshalb wurde er zu einem unerwarteten Verkaufsschlager. Bis zum Bauzeitende 2002 wurden rund 200.000 Roadster und fast 20.000 Coupés verkauft. Aus heutiger Sicht ist der Z3 der ideale Einsteiger-Oldtimer: Großserientechnik, hohe Zuverlässigkeit, noch relativ günstig und mit hohem Wertzuwachs-Potential. Auch Ron und Frederic sind vom Z3 begeistert. Beide tendieren allerdings zum Coupé. Während Frederic allerdings bereits mit dem Dreiliter-Sechszylinder zufrieden wäre, müsste es für Ron schon das M-Coupé mit 321 PS sein. Was das alles mit 007, Brad Pitt und Rostvorsorge zu tun hat – das erfahrt ihr in diesem Podcast.

Thinking about a Porsche and stuck between a base car and an S badge? This episode is for you.Will and Derek break down what actually separates Porsche base models from S models, going past forum noise and badge ego. If you have ever heard “you only buy a base because you can't afford an S,” you will want to hear this.In this episode you'll hear: – Why Porsche created base and S trims in the first place – How the split goes all the way back to early 356 and long-hood 911s – Real differences in power, torque, brakes, wheels, and cooling between base and S – Why older, lower horsepower cars benefit more from the S upgrade – How modern turbo motors shrink the gap between base and S – Why a base 997, 991, 986/987 Boxster, or 981/718 can feel closer to an “old school” Porsche – How S models can be too fast to enjoy on real roads – Why the base often lets you use more of the rev range and more of the chassis – When an S absolutely makes sense for track use, canyons, or big straight roads – How this plays out with 991.2 vs 992, Carrera T, and air-cooled vs water-cooled cars – Practical advice for first-time buyers and repeat Porsche ownersWill talks through his own journey from “unapologetic S snob” to someone who now respects base cars in a serious way. Derek argues that many experienced drivers quietly prefer the base, and that real driver engagement lives in the cars everyone overlooks.If you are cross-shopping: – Base vs S 911 (997, 991, 992) – Base vs S Boxster or Cayman – Base vs S Macan or Cayenneyou will get clear, honest guidance on what actually matters and what is marketing.Chapters: 00:00 Welcome to Rennthusiast Radio 01:00 Why base vs S feels like Boxster vs 911 03:00 History of base vs S from 356 to modern cars 06:30 Psychology, pricing, and how Porsche moves you up the ladder 10:30 “Embrace the base or say yes to the S” 13:00 Real power, torque, and brake differences 18:00 Will's S snob phase and what changed 24:00 Air-cooled vs water-cooled: why S matters more in old cars 29:00 Why base feels more like a classic Porsche on real roads 35:00 991.2 Carrera S vs 992 Carrera T back to back 40:00 Tunes, torque, and modern turbo tricks 44:00 Practical buying advice: who should pick base, who should pick S 50:00 Listener challenge: defend your side in the commentsWatch Will's builds and ownership stories on the Rennthusiast YouTube channel.Watch Derek's reviews and road trips on ElevenAfterNine.Listen to Rennthusiast Radio on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, and all major podcast apps.Tell us in the comments what you own, base or S, and whether we got this right or completely wrong.

Will and Derek break down the upgrades that matter, the ones that do nothing, and the traps new owners fall into when they start buying parts before they even drive the car.You will hear what actually improves feel, control, and confidence across multiple generations of 911, Boxster, and Cayman. No hype, no wasted money, just real experience from two guys who have owned and driven these cars for years.In this episode you will learn: • When to use PPF, when to skip ceramic, and how to protect your paint the right way • Which exhaust changes add character without making the car miserable • Why a short shift kit and fresh bushings can transform older gearboxes • How to clean and service the pedal box for a better clutch feel • What steering wheels work on older cars, and why some modern swaps fit and others do not • How PIWIS steering profiles change the feel of newer cars • Why Michelin PS4S tires are the best all round choice • Why old rubber with “good tread” is still unsafe • How suspension fades over time and why fresh dampers can bring a tired car back to life • When corner balancing and a proper alignment change the way the car responds • Simple seat repairs that make the car feel new againIf you want sharper shifts, better turn in, more grip, and a cleaner connection to the chassis, this guide gives you a clear path.

Porsche profits dropped a whopping 99% this year. And as usual, this was extremely easy to predict. They already pulled back on the full electrification of the Boxster and Cayman, but add in weakening sales in China, tariffs, and people just plain tired of paying ridiculous ADMs and Porsche had an easy to see plan to fail.

How much does mileage really matter on a Porsche? This week on Rennthusiast Radio, Derek and Will dig into the age-old debate: Are you better off with a low-mileage “garage queen” or a high-mileage “driver” that's been loved and used? We break down the psychology behind Porsche odometers, why some owners obsess over the 20k, 80k, and 100k milestones, and how value, condition, and maintenance all play into the equation.We also talk about: -Why some Porsches gain romance at 200k+ miles -The concept of “free Porsche miles” between 40k–80k -How older air-cooled cars vs newer water-cooled cars change the mileage conversation -Why EVs flip the script (miles vs charge cycles) -The balance between ROI and pure driving joyWhether you baby your 911, daily your Boxster, or are hunting for your first Porsche, this episode will change how you think about mileage.Subscribe for weekly Porsche talk

Tras décadas en las que parecía que Porsche solo tenía éxito con su 911, la marca consiguió salir de ese “agujero” y ser una de las más rentables del Mundo… si no la que más. Y en lo que va de 2025 su beneficio ha caído un 67 por ciento. No es la única: Mercedes ha caído el 56 por ciento… ¿Qué está pasando? Te lo vamos a contar, pero te anticipo algo: La crisis de Porsche es, en realidad, la crisis de Europa. Hoy, en este video, nos centraremos en Porsche como ejemplo de lo que está pasando a las marcas europeas y en especial a las Premium… que es casi como decir a las alemanas. Ya le llegará al turno a otras, pero Porsche me parece el ejemplo perfecto para explicar una crisis que no es de una marca, es de una industria: La industria del motor europea… Y ya sabéis que me gusta comenzar las historias por el principio. A Porsche le costó salir de la “trampa” que suponía el éxito del 911. Hubo varios intentos fallidos: Primero, en 1969, llegó el 914, un proyecto conjunto con VW para hacer crecer la marca “por abajo” … fue un fracaso. Luego, en 1976, llegó el 924, otro proyecto nacido para VW y que recompró la propia Porsche. Se lanzó con motor Audi-VW, un 4 cilindros “de agua” y con unos 120 CV y no triunfó… las sucesivas evoluciones 944 y 968 mejoraron mucho el coche, pero no consiguieron los objetivos de ventas previstos. Porsche, preocupada en ¡1978! porque el 911 se les quedaba anticuado se inventaron un sucesor, un Gran Turismo excelente, el 928, con sofisticada tecnología y motor V8… que ni de lejos fue capaza de hacer sombra al 911. La cosa pintaba mal hasta que en 1996 alguien tuvo una feliz idea y llegó el Boxster, un modelo con motor central y aspecto de 911, pero descapotable, más pequeño y sobre todo más barato … una puerta de entrada a la marca. Solo 6 años después aparece el Cayenne, por fin un Porsche con 4 puertas laterales, con todo lo bueno de la marca Porsche, pero en formato ideal para aquellos que querían un Porsche, pero no quería la incomodidad y falta de practicidad de un Coupé. Más adelante se presenta el Panamera, en 2009, la primera verdadera berlina de Porsche y en 2014 el Macan, que por simplificar es al Cayenne lo que el Boxster o su equivalente coupé, el Cayman, al 911: Un modelo más pequeño y más barato. La marca pasa a ofrecer modelos no solo de gasolina, sino de gasóleo, híbridos de todo tipo y con el Taycan, presentado en 2019, modelos 10x100 eléctricos. En poco más de 10 años Porsche había pasado de tener una gama mínima, a ofrecer modelos de todo tipo y motorización, pero decididamente muy Premium, caros… y que dejaban buenos márgenes de beneficios. Se puede decir que Porsche se convirtió en la “marca perfecta”, que lo hacía todo bien: coches espectaculares, tecnología puntera, beneficios envidiables… Y de repente, llega 2025, y Porsche ve caer su beneficio operativo un 67%. ¿Qué ha pasado? Crisis de liderazgo. El propio Oliver Blume, CEO de Porsche y del Grupo Volkswagen, ha tenido que intervenir directamente para intentar reconducir la situación. ¿La razón? Caída de beneficios, falta de estrategia clara y presión de los inversores.” En Porsche, las tensiones internas estallaron a comienzos de 2025 cuando el director financiero Lutz Meschke, y el jefe de ventas Detlev von Platen fueron “invitados” a salir por la puerta de atrás en una restructuración sorpresa de la cúpula. El coche eléctrico: En el ojo del huracán. ¡Como no! El coche eléctrico está en el centro de todo este lío. Si no habéis visto el video titulado “PORSCHE RECTIFICA: Más térmicos, menos eléctricos” donde cuento mi conversación con los “jefazos” de Porsche en la presentación de su prototipo Mission E, la Semilla del Taycan, en el salón de Frankfort de 2015… pues deberíais verlo. Ahora Porsche, y otras muchas marcas “occidentales” se están replanteando sus objetivos. De unas ventas de eléctricos del 80 por ciento ahora hablan de modelo de combustión y, sobre todo, híbridos. También hemos hecho un video comparando las ventajas de eléctricos e híbridos, por cierto. En GH es que tenemos de todos… ¡nos acercamos a los 1.500 videos! Nuestros políticos, ¿saben lo que hacen? Estamos dando “caña” a las marcas, pero gran parte de la culpa de lo que esta sucediendo la tiene una normativa europea inadecuada y que no da tregua. Llega la nueva normativa de emisiones “Euro 7”, super exigente, aunque menos de lo previsto, que obliga a las marcas a invertir millones en tecnologías de combustión… justo cuando todas las marcas están volcadas en los eléctricos. La Unión Europea se ha convertido en una máquina de general normativa. China, de salvavidas a lastre. Durante los últimos años, China se convirtió en un gran mercado para las marcas europeas, en especial la Premium. Pero la oferta en este segmento de marcas chinas con productos cada vez más atractivos ha provocado que, en 2025, Porsche haya visto sus ventas caer un 33 por ciento solo en el primer trimestre. Los aranceles, el “juguete” de Trump. Si en vez de al Este, miramos al Oeste… pues las cosas tampoco pintan bien. EE.UU. ha impuesto aranceles del 25% a muchos vehículos y componentes europeos. Según Porsche esta medida les ha costado unos 400 millones de euros en lo que va de 2025. Y aunque Porsche sigue vendiendo relativamente bien allí, el hecho de no tener una fábrica en suelo estadounidense, lejos de ser una ventaja, podría convertirse en un inconveniente. Otras marcas europeas ya lo vieron antes. La conclusión es clara: quien no produzca localmente, salvo que las cosas cambien, lo va a tener cada vez más difícil para competir en igualdad de condiciones. Un mundo global… ¿seguro? Europa, China y EE.UU. tienen gustos y leyes muy diferentes. No sé qué es más diferente, si los gustos o las leyes… En Europa gustan los compactos eficientes y los coches técnicamente sofisticados, en EE.UU. quieren SUV´s y pick-ups no grandes, sino enormes y en China, pantallas, karaokes, mucha conectividad y coches eléctricos de alto rendimiento. Cada mercado con gustos y regulaciones distintas, requieren diseños distintos, equipamientos distintos… en definitiva, coches distintos. Eso encarece los desarrollos, complica las homologaciones y obliga a tomar decisiones de producto, en ocasiones, muy arriesgadas. El final de un ciclo. Europa construyó buena parte de su industria del automóvil sobre dos pilares: energía barata y exportaciones fuertes. Pero el tablero de juego ha cambiado. Con la guerra en Ucrania, los precios de la energía se han disparado. Las fábricas europeas, que antes tenían costes energéticos razonables, ahora producen con un sobrecoste brutal frente a Asia o EE.UU. Porsche, como muchas otras, ha tenido que revisar márgenes y eficiencia en sus plantas. Y si a eso le sumas que las exportaciones caen por la competencia y los aranceles, el modelo de negocio clásico europeo se tambalea. Conclusión. Podría ser esta: “Mal de muchos, consuelo de tontos” Cierto, Porsche está en crisis, pero no está sola. Lo que le pasa a Porsche es lo que le está ocurriendo a buena parte de la industria europea.
